Goldmine  - Fran Brady

 

three years was all he had

to reveal the infinite ages of God

walking distance was all he had

to cover light years of knowledge and truth

simple, illiterate folk

to teach the complexity of His plan

arrogant, hostile scholars

to teach the simplicity of his love

 

when they nailed him to the cross

did he hang there wondering

is it enough? It is finished -

but have they really grasped it?

that was when he knew that

revelation could not end

 

Christianity is not a finished product

to be analysed, preserved and taught

it is a living language always evolving

as modern Italian to classical Latin

so our living faith to old texts

the goldmine goes on giving
